Abstract

Families with children with special needs (CWSN) face unique and diverse challenges that affect not only the individual child but also the entire family structure. The emotional, psychological, and social strain borne by parents—especially mothers—often surpasses that experienced by families without CWSN. The Family Quality of Life (FQoL) paradigm serves as a crucial framework for understanding how families with CWSN evaluate their overall life satisfaction. Family therapy is increasingly recognized as a holistic intervention aimed at enhancing FQoL by focusing on the family unit as a whole. By improving communication, emotional well-being, and equitable distribution of caregiving responsibilities, family therapy has the potential to foster a more harmonious and enriched family atmosphere. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of family therapy in improving the FQoL of families with CWSN. Using a mixed-methods approach, data were collected through the FQoL scale questionnaire, in-depth interviews, and observations. The results show significant improvements in emotional well-being, family relationships, and social support dimensions following the intervention. These findings suggest that family therapy is a strategic intervention for creating a healthier and more empowered caregiving ecosystem and highlight the importance of implementing family therapy as a supportive intervention for families with CWSN, thereby enhancing their overall and integrative quality of life.

Abstract

This study aims to optimize the fundamental communication capacity of students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) by utilizing the Treatment and Education of Autistic and related Communication-Disabilities (TEACCH) framework, combined with teacher-parent collaboration. The study used a mixed-method approach with a one-group pretest–posttest design. The research subjects consisted of four children with ASD, four parents, and one autistic class teacher as the main facilitator. Participants in this study consisted of two main groups, namely children with ASD and their parents. The study focused on four first-grade students. The participant selection process used purposive sampling techniques. To obtain comprehensive and valid data, this study used several complementary data collection instruments, namely an ASD communication skills observation guide for Children with ASD, interview protocols for teachers and parents, and semi-structured interviews with open-ended questions. Data analysis was conducted in an integrated manner by combining qualitative and quantitative approaches. The results showed an average increase of 34% in children's basic communication skills, particularly in recognizing themselves, family members, and classmates, as well as in expressing their needs or appropriately rejecting something.
